Hey folks, Harry here - Sorry I didn't get this finished yesterday afternoon - but the Doctor stuff took longer - but it's all good - I'm cleared for surgery and thindom is just some hard work away. Anyway - here's the rest of this last Tuesday's releases. As you can tell... it was a ton of great stuff. Like always - if you click on the box art or titles you'll be taken to AMAZON - where you can learn more on the title or purchase it - thus giving a small percentage to help support this column. Thanks a ton. Here ya go...

Hey folks, Harry here... This Tuesday has a flood of titles - and due to an early morning approaching - I must split the report into two pieces. So here's the top part of the list. Lots of great great titles and deals. As always, you can click on the box art and the titles to take you to AMAZON - where you can learn more on the title or purchase it with a small percentage going to support this column's continued existence. I hope you enjoy it - and there's a lot more coming sometime this afternoon. See you then, enjoy...

Hey folks, Harry here... The final major studio without an announced Blu-Ray slate has finally announced it. I received the following press release today detailing some fun stuff that us Hi-Def freaks can get excited about. In particular - we'll be getting THERE WILL BE BLOOD and CLOVERFIELD! Sadly - there is no announcement for the INDIANA JONES trilogy. Sniffle. Oh well, here we go...

Hey folks, Harry here with this week’s DVD PICKS AND PEEKS. Some interesting films here – Especially the 3 Criterion Children’s films – which I can’t recommend enough – and of course the exact opposite – THE BEAST FROM SPACE. But there’s more… As usual you can click on any of the box art or titles and be taken to Amazon where you can choose to purchase or learn more about the title in question. If you do purchase – a small percentage of the price will go to continue this column – which I hope you good folks enjoy. Well, enough from me, here ya go…

Hey folks, Harry here – you wouldn’t believe how awesome and eclectic this week’s column is. Lots of vintage jewels this week. Great titles – ancient titles… and so much more. I loved viewing most of these this week. As always – if you click on the box art or titles you’ll goto Amazon – where you can learn more on the title in question – and if you feel like it, you can buy it – thus supporting this column with a small percentage of the revenue helping this endless series. Well – there’s a lot to get to. Let’s get to it, shall we…

Hey folks, Harry here with this week’s DVD COLUMN – there’s lots of good stuff on here and as usual – if you click on the art or the title – you’ll find yourself at AMAZON where you can learn more on the title – or purchase it – which would send a portion of the profit to sponsor this column. Hope you enjoy it…

Hey folks, Harry here… I’m betting y’all were betting I wouldn’t get this done for today, but personal problems are not really an excuse to not get the job done – but an excuse to get the job done… right? I hope y’all enjoy this week’s column – and as usual the DVD art and titles are clickable to their Amazon page where you can learn more on the titles or if you feel like it, you can click-through to purchase and help support the column. Now – let’s get to this week…

Hey folks, Harry here and no foolin’ these are the releases of interest on this – the silliest holiday of the year! That said – as usual you’ll find that by clicking on the box art or the titles – you’ll be taken to Amazon – where you can learn more about the releases this Tuesday – or you can purchase the item – helping to sponsor the continuing exploits of this column. You know the drill… Let’s start it off with some fresh Meat Pies, eh?

Hey, everyone. ”Moriarty” here.
Okay, before you read anything else, you have to check out this interview with DMX if you didn't read it when it was first posted about two weeks ago. His reaction when told about the campaign of Barack Obama makes for some of the craziest reading of the year so far, and I find myself laughing each and every time. I want Vern to interview DMX next. My head would explode from happiness, I think.

Hey, everyone. “Moriarty” here.
David Milch should get back in the game.
I loved DEADWOOD. Absolutely adored every cocksucking second of it. I loved the characters, the tone, the look, the direction, the sense of time and place. And when HBO and/or David Milch pulled the plug (I’ve read differing accounts of what went down) a year before the story should have ended, it felt like a betrayal, and as a result, I refused to tune in to Milch’s follow-up series, JOHN OF CINCINNATI. I didn’t read about it. I didn’t watch it. I ignored it completely out of spite.

Hey folks, Harry here… hope you had a hippity hoppity Easter good time! The holiday put me behind schedule a tad - but here’s this week’s column. Not a lot of High Def content this week, but some really great titles and awesome exploitation glee towards the end of the column. As always – you can click on the box art or title to go to AMAZON – where you can learn more on the title – or if you want it, you can purchase – and a small percentage will go to continue this column’s work. I hope you enjoy the list and I’ll see you April Fool’s Day with more!

Dear Sony...
Y’know, some days it doesn’t pay to be a movie fan.
I’ve done tons of DVD coverage over the years here at AICN, and it’s funny... I’ve heard some people actually say, “But you guys don’t really cover DVD at Ain’t It Cool, do you?” I know I’ve been writing reviews for DVD since 1999 at least. And I’ve been a home video freak for as long as there’s been home video. I was a first generation video nerd in the ‘70s.

Ahoy, squirts! Quint here with a quick look at two upcoming DVD releases. THE MIST hits on DVD this very day and SWEENEY TODD hits next Tuesday. Both have single disc edition and two-disc special editions. Of course, the single disc editions on both are worthless, and the two-discers are the ones to opt for.

Hey, everyone. “Moriarty” here.
I know right now it’s cool to be giddy over the various HD releases showing up in our homes via On Demand premieres or on Blu-Ray disc, and believe me... as soon as I get my PS3 back (long story and longer process) from Sony, I plan to spend about 72 hours watching all the Blu-Ray discs I have stacked on my desk and unopened right now...

Hey folks, Harry here with another week of DVD titles. There’s some good stuff here, not a ton of titles, but a healthy group. Hope you enjoy the list this week – as always you can click on the box art or titles and it’ll take you to Amazon where you can learn more on the titles or if you wish, you can purchase them – and this column will get a small kick back to help keep the column going. Well… let’s get to it…

Hey folks, Harry here – I’m proud of me for getting this out – even though I’m in the midst of SXSW. There’s some great films on here – and a set that absolutely blows my mind, but you’ll discover that down below. As usual – the boxes and the titles are clickable to take you to AMAZON – where you can learn more – or purchase the title, where a tiny percentage will get kicked back to support this column, which I hope you all enjoy. Here ya go…

Hey folks, Harry here… Sorry for the lateness of the column – but I was two reviews from finishing this last Saturday – when my computer ate it. I’m sure you know the pain. The agony. The mental horror at seeing a few thousand words destroyed in a blink that you replay a thousand times in your mind trying to figure out… what did I do? Why didn’t it get saved in the miracle Mac back up system? Why me, God? Why me?

Hey folks, Harry here… This what’s coming out of interest today. As usual – the box art and the titles are clickable to Amazon – where you can learn more – and / or – purchase the film, with a small percentage going to support this column. Of everything in this month’s release – I can’t recommend you picking up JUSTICE LEAGUE – THE NEW FRONTIER enough… it is truly a masterpiece.

Hey folks, Harry here… well the big news this week is the end of the format war. While the war may be over – we’ve still, in the here and now got both formats continuing to come out. It’s a pretty good line-up – and as usual – if you click on a box or title, you can go to Amazon where you can learn more and if you decide to purchase it there, this column gets a small kick back – that helps it continue on. Let’s get right to it with a film much larger than the man who made it…

Hey folks, Harry here... Depending who you are... you're either jubilant or morose today - because it's pretty much over. Sources inside Toshiba have begun leaking to the press - that Toshiba is no longer going to be manufacturing HD DVD players - and is abandoning the format altogether. Apparently, this decision is going to cost Toshiba hundreds of millions of dollars -

Hey, everyone. ”Moriarty” here.
And it is beautiful.
I am pleased that JUSTICE LEAGUE isn’t happening at the moment, and that it’s not going to dilute what Nolan’s doing in live-action with Batman right now.
I’m equally pleased that the animated side of things continues to be a fertile playground for all sorts of artists who want to play with the iconography of Batman and his rogue’s gallery.

Hey folks, Harry here… sorry it’s been so long since I hit my regular schedule, but here we are… Posting well in advance of this coming Tuesday. There’s some fun stuff here. In fact, I sort of have an argument with myself over which is the most fun title… and there’s a good 5 titles I could argue that award for. As always – if you click on a DVD you’ll be taken to Amazon – where you can learn more on the title and/or purchase the item so that a portion of the price goes to support this column. Thanks a lot and I hope you enjoy this good week of titles…

Hey folks, Harry here – first time in a while that I got this out in advance of the actual day of release… but I said I would – and I did… just not as ambitiously early as I thought. As always – the dvd art and titles are clickable to Amazon where you can learn more about the titles, purchase them – and this column will be thankful by continuing to searching out the interesting works being released each and every week. Some great stuff this week.

Hey folks, Harry here – I told you that I’d get this done today – and I stayed up all night banging it out. Here it is. As usual – click on the boxes or the titles and you’ll have the chance to go to Amazon where you can learn more on the title, buy the title and kick back a little something to this column. Glad to be back and as up to date as I can. I’ll have next week’s before the weekend – SUPER BOWL could easily distract me. Here ya go…
